Having just finished arranging Xiang Lili's marriage, Zhang Jidi was extremely strict with Xiang Mianmian's partner.
The first thing he said was to marry into the family, otherwise there would be no discussion.
No matter how outstanding the family the matchmaker mentioned, she would not be deceived and would stick to this principle without wavering.
"My youngest sister won't marry, she only wants a son-in-law, no matter how outstanding the man is."
Zhang Jidi always said this to the matchmaker,
She had already prepared the material conditions, and now she was not choosing the man's family background, but the man's own conditions.
Height, appearance, weight, education, personality, only hard conditions are considered.
As long as the family doesn't live in a cowshed, it's fine, but the person must be exceptionally outstanding and worthy of Xiang Mianmian.
The atmosphere within the family should also be harmonious. It should not be filled with scheming or scheming, and certainly not be filled with gunpowder.
This really gave the matchmaker a headache.
They have long been accustomed to external additional conditions as a pass for men, and the mother-in-law only cares about material things.
Even if they say they love their daughter, that is just a bargaining chip. All the reasons for objection are that the money is not in place.
As long as the betrothal gift is sufficient, a daughter as beautiful as a fairy can also be married to a short and ugly man.
All of this is the truth that matchmakers have verified many times. Unexpectedly, after a lifetime of success, they hit a wall with Zhang Jidi.
She really regards money as dirt and doesn't even blink an eye at the bride price.
Once, when Xiang Mianmian came back from helping someone repair a clock, she heard the upset matchmaker say loudly that with Zhang Jidi's strict requirements, he would never find a suitable person.
She didn't feel anything about the scene.
If you can find someone compatible with you, spend your life with them. If not, just stay single.
With my skills, I will never have to worry about having food to eat.
Zhang Jidi thought the same and comforted Xiang Mianmian: "It's okay, we are still young, we will find the right one."
Xiang Mianmian could only smile in response to her mother's comfort.
She is just over 16 years old and still a child. It is indeed possible to wait a few years, so she is not in a hurry.
It is worth mentioning that among the people who came to propose marriage, there was an acquaintance, Qin Renmin, who is also the brother of my best friend Qin Wanwan.
He and Xiang Mianmian were classmates. They both studied repairmanship and had a common language.
Zhang Jidi was really tempted by this candidate.
She had seen this child doing repairs with Xiang Mianmian, and all the hard conditions were met.
His family also sounds very nice. He has an older brother, Qin Huaguo, who is married and has children. His younger sister, Qin Wanwan, is a close friend of Xiang Mianmian, and they are a perfect match for each other.
There is just one thing, marrying into the family is not a good idea. I hope that at least one of the children has the Qin family surname.
We should at least give some face to the Qin people. How can such a great man be left without an heir?
After listening to the above advantages, Zhang Jidi really took this candidate into consideration, so he felt a little soft-hearted about the kid with the surname Qin.
Finally, Xiang Mianmian gave the final word: "Goodbye, mother, just reject him."
Zhang Jidi asked in confusion, "Why is that? You and Qin Wanwan's sister-in-law are a good match, and his family lives nearby, how great is that?"
Xiang Mianmian whispered to her about the situation of the Qin family.
My best friend Qin Wanwan has a good life in the Qin family because she has a good brain and a clever mouth, but her sister Qin Sui is miserable.
Because he was timid and cowardly, he often did not have enough to eat and had to rely on Qin Wanwan for help.
Xiang Mianmian said helplessly, "Mom, think about it. If you don't even love your own daughter, how will I treat my granddaughter who is one generation older and has a different surname?"
With so many superimposed words, how can the granddaughter be treated well?
Zhang Jidi broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this: "I always thought his family treated Qin Wanwan so well, supporting her to go to technical secondary school, so they must be a family that loves their daughter..."
It was because of his daughter's best friend Qin Wanwan that Zhang Jidi relaxed the conditions for the Qin family. He didn't expect that there was also Qin Sui with a low sense of presence!
I was really dazzled by the superficial splendor.
Xiang Mianmian sighed: "Qin Wanwan is very talented, but Qin Sui is a very pitiful girl."
She had smuggled some delicious food to Qin Wanwan before, and Qin Wanwan would share it with his sister every time.
From this incident, we can see what kind of family the Qin family is. Although the Qin people are well-off, they are not a good match.
Even if a woman marries a man into her husband's family, the influence of the man's original family still exists.
People who grow up in an environment that favors boys over girls will most likely continue to treat their daughters as they did in the previous generation.
Xiang Mianmian didn't want to gamble whether her daughter would be the next "Qin Wanwan" or "Qin Sui".
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jidi immediately went to reject the Qin family.
The excuse was certainly not to favor boys over girls, but to just use the issue of marrying into the family, requiring all children to take the Xiang family surname, so that the Qin family would give up.
The matchmaker hired by the Qin family was still a little unwilling, and kept saying that it was not okay to have a child with the surname Qin?
This request did not seem so outrageous. After all, the conditions of the Qin people were really good, so reasonable people agreed.
But Zhang Jidi just disagreed.
What a joke, if your daughter is marrying into a family, it’s okay to relax the conditions in some insignificant aspects.
But it is absolutely unacceptable to favor boys over girls.
If you marry into a family like this, you might end up getting yourself into trouble.
My daughter has excellent qualifications. She is a prospective technical secondary school teacher. She is talented and skilled. It is not difficult to find a job. Why should she suffer such a bully?
The Qin family felt very sorry and tried to get Qin Wanwan to save the country in a roundabout way, but was rebuked by Qin Wanwan:
"They've already said they're only looking for a son-in-law, so how can I persuade them? Brother, if you really like her, then just agree to their terms."
Anyway, it’s impossible to persuade my best friend to lower her standards, and neither can my brother.
